I wouldn’t say the handling of COVID was smooth to say the least. Yes we handled it, we are still paying the bill for that handling (inflation). I think AI will have the disruption level of COVID, but there will not be an end in sight, 5%, 10, 20, 50% of people will lose jobs and even if they can refrain and handle it, it will take 5-10 years for those people to handle it. Can the countries have people on unemployment for that long ?

  Not like AI revolution will be better handled. It will be even worse because there are very obvious economic incentives to handle badly

    Covid is intrinsically bad. I don't think this is the case for AI.
